NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--2K today announced that NBA 2K16, the next
iteration of the top-rated NBA video game simulation series over the
last 15 years*, will define the ultimate intersection of sports and
pop-culture with three unique game covers from NBA All-Stars Stephen
Curry, James Harden and Anthony Davis, as well as highlighting an
all-new MyCAREER mode that was written and directed by acclaimed
filmmaker Spike Lee.

Demonstrating the NBA 2K series’ commitment to
authenticity and innovation, 2K and Visual Concepts joined forces with
legendary filmmaker and master storyteller Spike Lee to direct, write
and co-produce the NBA 2K16’s MyCAREER experience enabling
fans to be the story of an NBA player with drama never before
experienced in a sports game. Lee’s resume, not only as the most famous
fan of the New York Knicks, but as director for the classic feature film He
Got Game and Nike’s Mars Blackmon commercial series, demonstrates
his passion for basketball culture and storytelling ability which
culminate as an interactive experience in NBA 2K16’s
MyCAREER.

“Partnering with legendary 2K and Visual Concepts is one of the most
unique challenges I’ve had in filmmaking, and allows me to push the
boundaries of innovative storytelling,” said Spike Lee. “My hope is fans
will feel even more connected to the world of basketball in NBA
2K16.”

Paralleling Curry, Harden and Davis’ path to stardom, NBA 2K16’s
MyCAREER gameplay will combine NBA 2K’s most-played mode
with a rich, original story written and directed by Lee and produced by
Lee’s production company, 40 Acres and a Mule.

“Working with Spike Lee on NBA2K16’s MyCAREER has elevated
our most popular game experience from both a visual and narrative
perspective,” said Greg Thomas, President, Visual Concepts. “By writing
and directing the MyCAREER storyline, Spike brings the real world
experience of the NBA to life like never before making NBA 2K16
the ultimate simulation.”

2K also announced that three of the NBA’s top superstars will be making
their cover debuts on NBA 2K16: Golden State Warriors’
Stephen Curry, Houston Rockets’ James Harden, and New Orleans Pelicans’
Anthony Davis. All three athletes will grace their own individual NBA
2K16 cover, celebrating their remarkable on-court achievements
this season and throughout their careers.

Each athlete, from Curry, the 2014-15 Kia NBA Most Valuable Player to
Harden, a three time NBA All-Star and Davis, two-time NBA All-Star and
NBA block leader who helped lead the New Orleans Pelicans franchise to
its first ever playoffs appearance, has thoroughly earned the coveted
cover role.

and being selected as a cover athlete for NBA 2K16 is an
amazing way to celebrate this year. It’s a blessing to be named a
member of this special group and I am honored." – Stephen
Curry, NBA’s 2015 Most Valuable Player

"Fans had a chance to get a glimpse of what I’m capable of this
